Russia is still obtaining large volumes of Western technology critical to its war in Ukraine, even as sanctions show some sign of taking hold, new analysis shows.

China, Hong Kong, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates have been increasingly important in funneling critical components to Russia, according to new research, as supply chains have adapted in response to export controls aimed at choking off Moscow’s military machine.

“Russia continues to import large volumes of Western technology critical to its war against Ukraine”

Gosh, Jonny, what happened to the Ruzzia that is totally self-sufficient and doesn’t need the West? You just admitted that they can’t produce war materiel on their own and you admitted that sanctions are hurting them. Or else there’d be no need to circumvent them.

Ruzzia is a loser. They’re desperate. And they can’t supply their own war machine.

And you just admitted all of this.

No blinis for you at the Kremlin office party!

The purpose of war is to make money.

More money can be made by selling to both sides.
